Revelation

Today I am reading Revelation. I don’t know what lesson will be learned yet. But at this moment, I feel that everyday, God, more than likely, wants to give us a revelation for the day. Something which we can use to strengthen, encourage or guide us to go though the day. We should expect revelation daily or ask for it.
I opened the book of Revelation to Chapter 1. In the first verse, I am told that this is the revelation of Jesus Christ which God gave unto him.  I asked who is ‘him’?  In the past I have thought this was revelation given to John. But today, I believe the book of Revelation reveals the revelation God gave to Jesus Christ about things that must shortly come to pass. I say that because in the last sentence of verse 1 and continuing on to verse 2, it is written that the revelation of Jesus Christ was sent by the angel of God to John.  John is a servant of God who bare record of the testimony of Jesus Christ. This testimony of Jesus Christ reveals all things that he, Jesus Christ, saw that must come to pass.  John witnessed the angel bringing to him this testimony and he wrote it in the book called Revelation.  The book of revelation is the revelation of what God gave to Jesus Christ of things that must come to pass.
God showed unto Jesus Christ ‘things which must shortly come to pass’ (verse 1, Revelation Chapter 1). Those things were delivered to John by the angel of God. John recorded it and was a witness to this day.
We have the book of revelation but we must also ask for revelation of God’s word if it is not understood.  In verse 3 it reads “blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: fo the time is at hand”.
Revelation sent by God brings light to our pathway(s). As the scriptures say, His Word is a lamp unto our feet (Psalm 119:105). Ask for revelation. Read Revelation.
